Prior to release the Brut Reserve is aged for 3-4 years giving the wine depth whilst allowing the component parts to become fully integrated. The grapes for the Brut Reserve come from prime vineyards throughout Champagne, with approximately 50% coming from the Taittinger Estate. It is a carefully balanced blend of wines from more than 35 'crus'. '

TANDEM Brut Fleury-la-Rivière Champagne M & G Heucq NV

The 2014 Extra Brut Tandem is half Chardonnay, half Pinot Meunier from Fleury-la-Rivière and Damery, made in stainless steel and oak. An initial note of lemony butter soon reveals notions of chalk that lend both dimension and a slightly astringent structure that call for food. Fruit fills this structure out generously with notions of plum, but this really is about soil, depth and beautiful length on a slender body with enticing lemony, salty length. Dosage is 5gr/L. Disgorged: March, 2022.
